A truly prodigious and original
artist, Edward St. John Gorey (1925-2000), gave to the world
over one hundred works, including The Gashlycrumb Tinies,
The Doubtful Guest and The Wuggly Ump; prize-winning
set and costume designs for innumerable theater productions
from Cape Cod to Broadway; a remarkable number of illustrations
in publications such as The New Yorker and The New
York Times, and in books by a wide array of authors from
Charles Dickens to Edward Lear, Samuel Beckett, John Updike,
Virginia Woolf, H.G. Wells, Florence Heide and many others.
His well known animated credits for the PBS Mystery series
have introduced him to millions of television viewers. Gorey's
masterful pen and ink illustrations and his ironic, offbeat
humor have brought him critical acclaim and an avid following
throughout the world. |
